The article is devoted to the study of zoomorphisms at different stages of ethno-cultural self-awareness in bilingual children. The zoomorphism dog is presented as culturally significant and the most frequent in textbooks of Russian language and in the everyday communication of schoolchildren. The objectives are analysis of the cultural symbolism of the dog in different linguistic traditions (Kazakh and Russian); determination of the peculiarities of the perception of zoomorphism by bilingual language groups. In the context of bilingual education, it becomes necessary to take into account the cultural characteristics of the Kazakh and Russian languages, including the peculiarities of the perception of the zoomorphism dog, which may differ significantly in different cultures. The correct understanding of texts with the image of a dog in multi-system languages, the use and interpretation of the animals name being a part of paremiological and phraseological constructions contribute to effective intercultural communication, the development of linguistic and cultural competences of bilingual students. Taking into account the approach of cognitive anthropology, the analysis of such texts deepens the understanding of cultural values, mental patterns and worldviews of different peoples, which, in turn, increases the level of intercultural competence and enhances successful interaction.
